Answer:

the containment policy

Step-by-step explanation:

US containment policy was proposed by the government to limit the powers of the Soviet Union and its spread of communism after World War II. This policy was a reply to the Soviet Union when it started to expand its communist control in Eastern Europe and Asia. The idea of containment policy was to make countries well-off enough to avoid the lure of the Soviet Union.
